Book Review 1-05

I read "GHOST IN THE GUITAR". When I found this book and looked at this book cover, I thought it was cool and interesting. So, I read this book.

Katherine, main character of this story, and Tom, her boyfriend, spent happy days in their band, Steel City. Member of the band were Katy (Tom called her "Katy"), Tom, Aruna and Danny. Katy played the Keyboard and Tom played the guitar. Aruna was their bassist and Danny was their drummer.
They practiced their instrumental to win "The Battle of The Band". It was a big competition for bands because the winners of the competition were able to make a CD at a local record company. They hope their own CDs so they want to win the competition.
One day, Tom's guitar was broken through Katy's carelessness so they went to buy the new guitar but they had only a little money and couldn't buy most of the guitar.
A few days later, the trouble began. Suddenly Tom can play the guitar very well, but he seemed to be a different person like changing another person. He was always very kind to everyone but then he was always angry. Katy wondered how he changed. She investigated his new guitar so she knew the secret of the guitar.
The truth is ghost’s work. The ghost is a great guitarist who died 20 years ago. He and members of his band couldn't win the competition so he was angry. After that, he died in a car crash. The guitar Tom bought was his one so the ghost inhabited the guitar.
As a result, Tom went back to be himself because Katy broke the guitar. However, the ghost wasn't such a bad person because he just wanted to win the competition.

Through this story, I sympathize with Tom or the ghost because they just wanted to play the guitar well. I also like playing the guitar and think so. I think it wouldn't hurt to be possessed by the ghost if I play the guitar well.
